Abstract
The association between vitamin-D-resistant rickets and linear sebaceous naevus syndrome is extremely rare. Only eight cases have been described in the English literature and in none were the skeletal aspects addressed. We present three new cases and describe the musculoskeletal features. The details and outcome of surgery for correction of the deformities are discussed. The disturbances of metabolism of vitamin D and the effects of pharmacological treatment are also described.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sebaceous carcinoma (SC) is a rare, aggressive, malignant tumor that is derived from adnexal epithelium of sebaceous glands that are distributed mostly in the skin of the head, neck, and hair-bearing regions of the body. OBJECTIVE To discuss the clinical and histologic features and the prognosis of the extraocular SC. METHOD We report a case of SCs of the scalp arising from a previous lesion clinically compatible with a nevus sebaceous. The lesion was surgically excised completely. RESULTS The postoperative course was free of complications, and the patient was clinically free of disease at her recent follow-up 2 years after treatment. CONCLUSIONS The absence of metastasis or cutaneous recurrence in our patient, notwithstanding the size of the lesion and its late removal, almost 25 years after the first signs of its growth, confirms a much improved prognostic behavior for extraocular SCs.

Abstract
We present a case of squamous cell carcinoma arising in a naevus sebaceous of Jadassohn (NSJ) in a 15-year-old girl. Both these events are rare, and this is the first reported case of a squamous cell carcinoma developing in NSJ in a child. The previous literature on sebaceous naevi and malignancies arising thereof is reviewed and discussed. Early excision is recommended in any cases of nodular change in sebaceous naevi in all age groups.

Abstract
A one-month-old male infant with generalized seizures since 2 days old was evaluated at the Department of Pediatrics, Faculty of Medicine, Ramathibodi Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand. His seizures were initially characterized as focal movement of the right upper and lower limbs followed by generalized tonic. Initially, phenobarbital was administered but failed to control his seizures. Physical examination revealed generalized mild hypotonia with a hyperpigmented brownish patch affecting the left side of his face. The initial diagnosis was sebaceous nevus syndrome which is one of the neurocutaneous syndromes. The diagnosis was confirmed by skin biopsy of the affected lesion. The literature was reviewed and discussed. The authors emphasized the importance of thorough physical examination including evaluation of specific skin lesion which would be a leading clue in making the diagnosis of symptomatic epilepsy in infants.

Abstract
A nodule arising within the nevus sebaceus on the vertex of the scalp of a 68-year-old woman was histopathologically and immunohistochemically investigated. We also used immunohistochemistry to investigate the cytokeratin (CK) distribution of the outer root sheaths of normal terminal hair follicles. The nodule consisted of two parts, a main exophytic part with a lobular proliferation and a small peripheral part with the features of trichoblastoma. The main exophytic lesion consisted of lobular aggregations composed of both or either basaloid cells and clear cells with the silhouette and cytology of malignancy. The columnar clear cells were aligned in a palisade at the periphery of the aggregations of clear cells, and the aggregations located in the superficial dermis were connected to the follicular infundibular structures. Almost all of the neoplastic aggregations were diffusely positive for CK7 (OV/TLR/30), and the innermost or inner cells of the neoplastic aggregations were positive for CK17; a similar staining pattern to that in the lower portion of the outer root sheath between the A and B fringes in normal terminal hair follicles. The exophytic part of the lesion was a malignant neoplasm with differentiation mainly toward the lower segment of the outer sheath between the A and B fringes of the terminal hair follicle, namely tricholemmal carcinoma. Our case may represent a collision of two distinctive neoplasms (tricholemmal carcinoma and trichoblastoma), however, an intimate relationship between these two neoplasms also should be considered.

Abstract
The prevalence of cutaneous malignancies is higher in immunosuppressed patients. Here, we describe a case with a rapid growing and unusually large sebaceous tumor in a patient with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Sebaceous adenomas are commonly rare, benign tumors of sebaceous glands. An association of AIDS and a solitary, large sebaceous adenoma has not been described yet. This emphasizes the role of an intact immune system in the suppression of benign and malignant tumors. tubular adenoma; tumor; AIDS

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sebaceous carcinoma is an uncommon malignant neoplasm usually associated with the ocular adnexa. Despite the widespread anatomic distribution of sebaceous glands, extraocular sebaceous carcinoma occurs with far less frequency. METHODS A 27-year-old man was examined with the presenting complaint of a slowly enlarging subcutaneous mass. It was associated with an overlying, irregular, verrucoid epidermal plaque. RESULTS Histologic and electron microscopic examination of the mass revealed a malignant sebaceous neoplasm occurring in conjunction with an overlying nevus sebaceus. The dermal neoplasm contained numerous cytoplasmic and stromal hyaline globules. CONCLUSIONS We report a case of extraocular sebaceous carcinoma arising in the postauricular region in association with a nevus sebaceus and exhibiting the unusual histologic feature of hyaline globules.

Abstract
A 73-year-old woman had a linear yellowish plaque on the upper part of her right ear since birth. She presented because of the sudden growth of a nodule within the plaque. The plaque was waxy and yellowish, arching around the upper part of the ear. A reddish to yellowish large nodule was seen within the central part of the arc-shaped plaque; in addition, a small pigmented nodule, a small skin-colored nodule, and a few pigmented papules were observed in the anterior half of the arched plaque. Histopathologic examination revealed the large nodule to be sebaceous carcinoma, the small pigmented nodule to be trichoblastoma, the small skin-colored nodule to be sebaceoma with the features of trichoblastoma, a few pigmented papules to be superficial trichoblastomas due to primitive follicular induction, and the linear yellowish plaque to be nevus sebaceus. Although our literature search revealed scanty reports of definite cases of sebaceous carcinoma in nevus sebaceus, the presented case demonstrated the occurrence of sebaceous carcinoma in nevus sebaceus. Malignant neoplasms occurring in nevus sebaceous seem to be extremely rare, but care should be taken when a large nodule suddenly grows in a lesion of nevus sebaceus, especially in older adults. The presented case also suggested a close relation between trichoblastoma and sebaceoma. The cytokeratin staining pattern could not distinguish between sebaceous and follicular neoplasms in our case.

Abstract
Endocarditis is a recognised complication ofhemodialysis. This is generally only thought of in terms of infective vegetations. We present a case of right-sided NBTE in a patient with an indwelling venous catheter who also had advanced pelvic malignancy. The unusual side of this patient's endocarditic lesions implicates a role for the venous catheter in determining the site of non-bacterial thrombus formation. It is also a reminder that endocarditis is always a risk when using central venous catheters, even after appropriate sterile precautions have been taken.

Abstract
We report a case of a 60-year-old woman with a 4-year history of an asymptomatic plaque on her left cheek. The lesion was composed of two distinct adjacent and continuous parts comprising a lateral yellowish flat portion and a medial reddish nodular portion. Histologic examination revealed that the plaque was composed of two different adjacent tumors. The lateral portion of the plaque had the aspect of a seborrheic keratosis (SK) with hyperkeratosis and acanthosis with irregular proliferation of apparently benign basaloid and squamous keratinocytes and small horn pseudocysts. The medial portion showed a dermal tumor made up of differently sized lobules composed of immature sebocytes mixed with single or clustered mature sebaceous cells. Sebaceous ductal differentiation was visible. We made the diagnosis of SK associated with sebaceoma. The association of an SK with a benign neoplasm with sebaceous differentiation is rare. It may only be a coincidence, but a role for the preexisting SK cannot be ruled out.

Abstract
PURPOSE Patients infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) are at increased risk for developing malignancies, which are acquired at a younger age and are more aggressive. Sebaceous cell carcinoma is a rare eyelid tumor typically occurring in the seventh decade of life. We report two cases of sebaceous cell carcinoma in young HIV-infected patients. METHODS Case series and review of the literature. We describe two HIV-infected patients with sebaceous cell carcinoma of the eyelid and caruncle. The first patient was a 36-year-old woman with a 9-month history of an enlarging right lower eyelid mass. The second patient was a 34-year-old man with a 6-month history of an enlarging right caruncular mass. RESULTS Biopsy showed both masses to be sebaceous cell carcinoma. The first patient underwent Mohs' micrographic excision of the lesion followed by reconstruction of the full-thickness eyelid defect with a combination of tarsoconjunctival and myocutaneous advancement flaps. The second patient underwent exenteration because of orbital involvement. CONCLUSION Sebaceous cell carcinoma should be considered for any suspicious eyelid lesion in young HIV-infected patients.

Abstract
Nevus sebaceus of Jadassohn is a hamartoma that combines epidermal, follicular, sebaceous, and apocrine gland abnormalities. Classically, several types of cutaneous neoplasms have been associated with this hamartoma, with basal cell carcinoma being the most frequently described malignancy. We studied a series of 155 examples of nevus sebaceus of Jadassohn with clinicopathologic correlation. Several histopathologic changes related to the age of the patients were found. In our series, we could not identify any cases of authentic basal cell carcinoma. In contrast, several examples of primitive follicular induction and of trichoblastomas were seen. Other cutaneous hamartomas, hyperplasias, and neoplasms found in our series of nevus sebaceus of Jadassohn included syringocystadenoma papilliferum, sebomatricoma, apocrine gland cyst, poroma, different histopathologic variants of warts (classic warts, tricholemmoma, and desmoplastic tricholemmoma), primitive follicular induction, and ductal induction. In our series, no examples of malignant neoplasms were identified. On the basis of these findings, the classically recommended treatment for this hamartoma, which consists of early excision to prevent the development of malignancy, seems to be inappropriate.

Abstract
We report two cases of an unusual combined adnexal neoplasm arising in a nevus sebaceus (NS). Clinically, both neoplasms presented in two women (46 and 78 years) as single, partially ulcerated nodules within NS situated on the scalp. Histopathologically, each neoplasm showed distinctive aggregations of basaloid cells with features of trichoblastoma adjacent to aggregations of neoplastic cells exhibiting features of sebaceoma. In both cases, typical features of NS were present. To the best of our knowledge, this unusual combined adnexal neoplasm comprised of trichoblastoma and sebaceoma could not be assigned to any previously described histopathologic entity. This "complex" adnexal neoplasm should be distinguished histopathologically from basal cell carcinoma with sebaceous differentiation and trichoblastoma with sebaceous differentiation.

Abstract
PURPOSE To highlight the association of posterior osseous and/or cartilaginous ocular choristomas with epibulbar choristomas and the nevus sebaceus of Jadassohn. DESIGN Small case series. PARTICIPANTS Four patients with the organoid nevus syndrome. METHODS Clinical and histopathologic studies in four patients with epibulbar lesions and nevus sebaceus of Jadassohn. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Ophthalmoscopic findings of peripapillary lesions. Computed tomographic and ultrasonographic characteristic of posterior scleral lesions. Ocular histopathologic findings in one globe from one of the study subjects. RESULTS Three patients had the triad of posterior osseous/cartilaginous ocular choristomas, anterior epibulbar choristomas, and nevus sebaceus of Jadassohn and one patient had anterior epibulbar choristomas and posterior osseous/cartilaginous ocular choristomas. Ultrasonography and computed tomography were valuable in detecting scleral ossification or epibulbar cartilage or both. The ophthalmoscopic findings were similar to those of a choroidal osteoma. CONCLUSIONS The presence of posterior osseous/cartilaginous ocular choristomas in a patient with epilepsy or epibulbar lesions or both suggests the diagnosis of nevus sebaceus of Jadassohn. Osseous/cartilaginous ocular choristomas should be suspected in patients with nevus sebaceus of Jadassohn and peripapillary hypopigmented fundus lesions.

Abstract
Cystic sebaceous tumors (CST) are well-circumscribed, large, deeply located dermal sebaceous proliferations with a cystic growth pattern. We identified 12 CST in 8 of 19 patients with Muir-Torre syndrome (MTS). We interpret CST as a tumor spectrum with clearly benign cystic sebaceous adenomas at one end and proliferative atypical cystic sebaceous tumors at the other. When examining these proliferative atypical tumors on morphologic criteria alone, the possibility of an evolving cystic sebaceous carcinoma cannot be excluded. We have not observed recurrences or metastases, indicating that these lesions are not highly malignant carcinomas. In 10 of 12 cases of CST, we examined microsatellite instability (MSI). All 10 examined examples of CST from patients with MTS showed MSI characteristic for hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC), which is caused by autosomal dominant inherited DNA mismatch repair (MMR) defects. Mutational analysis of the MMR genes hMSH2 and hMLH1 had revealed different germline mutations in the hMSH2 gene in three of six examined patients with MTS with CST. We then found four more CST in patients without a history of internal malignancy. All four CST exhibited MSI. By mutational analysis in one of these patients we identified a truncating germline mutation in the MMR gene hMLH1. We conclude that CST is a marker for the mismatch repair-deficient subtype of MTS with a high risk for later internal malignancies. By recognizing CST, the histopathologist can suggest the great likelihood of MTS to the clinician.

Muir-Torre syndrome patients have multiple visceral malignancies along with cutaneous sebaceous tumors and keratoacanthomas. We describe a history of a 64-year-old male patient with 13 tumours, who survived 13 years. The initial ascending colon adenocarcinoma was followed by some different tumors of the skin: adenoma and carcinoma of sebaceous glands, epidermoid and basaloid carcinoma and other benign tumors. The last time developed rectal adenocarcinoma was operated.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to describe the clinical and histopathologic findings in four patients with complex limbal choristomas associated with linear nevus sebaceous syndrome (LNSS), a rare disorder including nevus sebaceous, seizures, and mental retardation, and often accompanied by ocular anomalies. DESIGN Small observational case series. METHODS A retrospective review of the clinical and histopathologic records of four patients. RESULTS Each of four patients had complex limbal choristomas in the setting of clinical and histopathologic LNSS. The limbal choristomas were multiple in three patients and bilateral in two patients. Most choristomas involved the superotemporal limbus (6 of 10), although nasal (3 of 10) and inferior (1 of 10) limbal tumors also were present. Three patients had significant corneal astigmatism or involvement of the central cornea requiring surgical removal of their choristomas, one accompanied by a lamellar keratoplasty and another accompanied by two consecutive penetrating keratoplasties. Each graft eventually vascularized, reducing vision. One patient's vision was limited by amblyopia and another by occipital cortical dysgenesis with visual impairment. Histopathologic examination of the excised choristomas showed foci of lacrimal gland (3 of 4 patients), adipose tissue (3 of 4), neural tissue (1 of 4), cartilage (1 of 4), lymphoid follicles (1 of 4), skin adnexal tissue (1 of 4), and smooth muscle (1 of 4). Other associated ocular findings included an eyelid mass (1 of 4), colobomas of the eyelid (3 of 4), colobomas of the choroid and retina (2 of 4), nonparalytic strabismus (2 of 4), scleral ectasia (1 of 4), partial oculomotor palsy with ptosis and anisocoria (1 of 4), microphthalmia (1 of 4), hypertelorism (1 of 4), and cortical visual impairment (1 of 4). CONCLUSIONS Complex limbal choristomas, although rare, can occur in the setting of LNSS and can be associated with multiple ocular and systemic abnormalities. Visual prognosis appears poor in most cases despite aggressive management.

Abstract
We report a 34-year-old woman with linear sebaceous nevus syndrome and dolichomegalic artery. The patient was admitted to our hospital for evaluation of a headache and fever. Neurological examination revealed no focal sign except neck stiffness. She had had sebaceous nevi on the left side of her head, cheek and neck since she was born. A cranial CT scan showed high signal intensity in the subarachnoid space. Cranial MRI showed a dolichomegalic artery. The patient's past history included many episodes of headache and fever since her first decade of life and she had been diagnosed five times with cerebrovascular disease. At the present admission, subarachnoid hemorrhage was diagnosed and treated. The patient improved and was discharged on the 21st day. Linear sebaceous nevi are associated with many types of anomalies, but we found no other reported cases of linear sebaceous nevus syndrome associated with a cerebrovascular anomaly. This case suggests that a patient with sebaceous nevi who presents with headache and fever should be examined with careful attention to the cerebrovascular system.

Abstract
In 1981, a black man had adenocarcinoma of the colon. In 1986, he had a sebaceous adenoma and the diagnosis of the Muir-Torre syndrome was established. The patient was found to be HIV sero-positive in 1986, and 8 years later fulfilled the CDC criteria for AIDS. During 1989 to 1993 the CD4 count was > 200 cells/ml and the patient had 2 sebaceous tumors, 1 basal cell carcinoma and 1 keratoacanthoma. In 1994 to 1996, the CD4 count was < 200 cells/ml and the patient developed 18 sebaceous tumors and a poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma of the finger which metastasized to axillary lymph nodes. Microsatellite analysis of tumor DNA from a sebaceous adenoma and adenocarcinoma of the finger revealed widespread microsatellite instability. The interaction of AIDS with the behavior of the tumors in the Muir-Torre syndrome has not previously been reported. Although our patient had an increase in the number of new sebaceous tumors at the same time he experienced deterioration of the immune system, he is doing well 15 years after resection of adenocarcinoma of the colon and 16 months after metastatic poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma of the skin. This follows the previously observed tendency for cancers of the Muir-Torre syndrome, especially those displaying widespread microsatellite instability, to be less lethal than their histologically similar counterparts in people without Muir-Torre syndrome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Orbital venous anomalies can result in significant morbidity and have been reported in association with other venous anomalies, some with the potential for serious complication. METHODS/RESULTS We present a case of an orbital venous anomaly coexistent with a large cerebellar venous angioma and a linear sebaceous naevus. Clinical features, associations, complications and management principles are presented. CONCLUSION Upon clinical recognition of an orbital venous anomaly, brain imaging and appropriate clinical assessment should be considered in light of the possibility of coexistence of potentially life-threatening lesions.
